Wow, today when I went to visit one of mediacorp's forum, I noticed a post there that says that XiaXue's blog has been hacked into. And out out curiosty I went to click into XiaXue's blog and what the heck, XiaXue's blog now has only a plain skin and only Wednesday's posting. Wow the hacker must be damn hating XiaXue lor, he so eager and spend so much time getting all her blogger passwords, and gmail passwords and then hacked into all her accounts and empty all her previous messages and archives. Now XiaXue's blog 3 year's worth of effort has gone down the drain, feels so sorry for her. Luckily XiaXue has tons of supporters. One of her fans has a backup blog of her setup at http://xialanbin.blogspot.com/. I guess XiaXue has to spend a lot of effort restoring her blog again to its former glory. She is going to report the hacker to the police. Wait and see what happens to her blog the next few days. Her blog is at http://xiaxue.blogspot.com/
